A Chicago woman who realized that her boyfriend would not be proposing to her over the New Year’s holiday as she had hoped came up with a novel solution to try and convince him otherwise- she called the police and told them he was attacking her.

Surprisingly, the incident did not result in a romantic, stroke of midnight proposal and in fact did not endear the woman to police. 40-year-old Ana Perez summoned the cops at 8:30 pm Sunday, claiming the man was “attacking her.” However, when police showed up, she admitted the report was a ruse to frighten the man into popping the question:

“She called 911 to scare him and have the police force him to marry her,’’ according to Grand Central District police Capt. Grand Central District Capt. Ronald Pontecore.

Perez, whose boyfriend was “actually in the process of breaking up with her,” was charged with disorderly conduct. Her poor schmuck of a probably now ex-boyfriend was obviously not charged.

David Schwimmer, the actor best known for his portrayal of Rachel-obsessed Paleontologist Ross Geller on 90s NBC hit Friends, has gotten engaged.

Schwimmer, 45, reportedly met 24-year-old photographer Zoe Buckman on the set of the film Run, Fatboy, Run in 2007 when she was working as a waitress.

He was working in a directorial capacity on Run, Fatboy, Run when he met his fiance.

Schwimmer’s agent confirmed the engagement to Entertainment Weekly. It will be the first marriage for both.

Soulja Boy, who is a frequent Tweeter, was rumored yesterday to be engaged to model Rosa Acosta.

Citing a “close friend” of the rapper, Media Takeout posted yesterday that a close friend of Soulja Boy claims the pair are engaged. Although Soulja Boy tends to update his nearly 1.6 million Twitter followers on the details of his life regularly, he did not mention an engagement via microblog. He did, however, tweet this yesterday:

lol @ www.mediatakeout.com

…which appears to be a denial that he is, in fact, engaged. However, celebrities have been known to conceal this information in the past. As of now? Not confirmed.

Does this sound like a Harlequin moment to anyone else? I bet the tabs will start fabricating rumors on Bridget Moynahan’s intense jealousy post-haste.

Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds are in fact engaged, and that makes for some potentially hot babies in the future (see above for proof). After watching grueling celeb specials on “10 Celebrity Marriage Mistakes” and the like, there’s one resounding message via Hollywood: rushing things can be a Big Mistake.

That is why Scarlett’s engagement couldn’t be better. She’s been dating Ryan Reynolds for over a year, which is equivalent to much more on the tinseltown timeline, and maybe they’re actually built to last. Even Scarlett’s rep is gushing about the whole thing, confirming that “They’re both thrilled.”

Perhaps Mariah Carey could’ve taken a page from their book.
